This is a perfect location for a retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life! Windancer Lodge is perfect for large families and reunions, or for a couple to snuggle up together in solitude. The lodge easily accommodates 17 people with plenty of rooms and beds for everyone. Each morning you’ll wake up to breathtaking views of Cascade Lake and West Mountain visible from the front side of the lodge. Enjoy relaxing dinners on the huge balcony overlooking a sleepy meadow on the backside. While enjoying the scenery, you are likely to spot a fox, rabbit or deer passing by. A large campfire area is available adjacent to the cabin for roasting marshmallows and enjoying the stars!
Comfortable and upscale furniture is found throughout the cabin. The main living room area accommodates two split areas. One can snuggle by the fire on one side, or sit and enjoy mountain and lake views on the other. The lodge has places of refuge for everyone! With large bedrooms, and a loft upstairs with books to read, everyone is sure to find a special spot for some privacy and solitude. Downstairs you’ll enjoy a game and entertainment room where children and adults can play with Nintendo games, watch DVD's, play air hockey, throw darts, or play pool; Another TV/DVD/VCR available in the Master Bedroom. Whether you’re looking to find solitude or entertainment, Windancer Lodge has it all!
Lake Cascade is just 250 yards from the front door. Just far enough away that young children can't wander into the water, but close enough for older kids to be able to walk back and forth at their leisure. Parking is no problem--there is room to park a boat, RV and several cars! Additional parking and public boat launch are just yards away at the public campground. You can even leave your boat in the only protected bay on the southern end of the lake and walk up to the cabin.
In the summer, the lake is often glassy making perfect conditions for water sports like wake boarding and skiing. The fishing is also fantastic! Be prepared to catch a perch a minute in the summer! Ride some of the best white water in the state just 15 minutes from our door. The Cabarton is a perfect family run and the Main Payette (30 min. away) is a bit more challenging in higher water.)
In the winter, the lake is blanketed with a solid layer of ice and snow making snowmobiling and ice fishing a must! Trails for motorcycles, mountain biking, horseback riding. snowmobiling are literally either out our back door or just up the street. Snowmobile across the lake and up West Mountain where there are miles of snowmobiling trails. Tamarack ski resort is only 30 minutes away. Brundage ski resort is 1 hour away. We have the best tubing hill just outside our back door! Or we can point you to an even bigger hill where we take our snowmobiles and haul kids up to the top for non stop fun!
Homebodies can stay indoors and enjoy Satellite Dish. Don't miss your favorite team! High Speed Wifi internet is also available for your convenience. We have a free internet phone for both local and long distance use within the US. Cell phone coverage is available too.
The lodge is always clean and fully stocked. We are used to feeding large crowds with large pans, crock pots, etc. We have blenders, mixers, coffee pot, toaster oven, air popcorn popper, large griddles and more. Washer and dryer available too.
Come get away! Windancer Lodge is the perfect place to stay!

Map & Owner's Profile
Windancer Lodge - Lake Cascade/Mountain Views -250 Yds to Lake
Year Purchased: 2001
Why the Owner Chose Lake Cascade
I grew up on a small private lake in Northern California and this is as close to the Huck Finn childhood that I remembered. It has it all. Rafting, kaying, canoeing, fishing, hunting, snowmobiling, sailing, boating, kiteboarding/skiing. Perfect sunsets. Campfires and warm cozy fires in the fall. It's the greatest.
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
Sledding out our back door. Snowmobiling right out our back door. Walking just a few hundred yards to the beach. Parking our boat in the cove. Hanging out with family. Puzzles by the fire. Family reunions with room for everyone. Wildlife. Fall walks. Eating out at local restaurants like "Grammas" and the LakeView restaurant. Hunting and motorcycle riding on trails nearby. Horse back riding in the fall especially. White Water Rafting just 15 minutes away. You name it we've got it!
This campground and boat ramp are 250 yards from Windancer Lodge front door.

We celebrated our parent’s 50th wedding anniversary here. Such a beautiful setting and home. At times we had all 6 kids, 4 spouses and 26 of the 31 grandkids here. Why not add a couple of boyfriends? We had a great time enjoying this beautiful country and being together. Thanks for the memories. It was a great time for Dad & Mom.

---Every year my husband and I try to plan a weekend where all of our children and grandchildren can be together. It gets harder every year to find the perfect place because our family keeps growing! Our Idaho gang now totals 16 including toddlers and two infants. The Windancer was perfect! It allowed all of us to be together, cook together, eat together, & most importantly play together. We had planned on going to a sledding hill for a few hours and were trying to figure out how to handle the babies, how to let the older kids stay as long as they wanted, while letting the toddlers quit when they were ready to quit. Imagine our surprise when we looked out the window early the first morning and realized that the cabin has its own amazing slope that made the perfect sledding hill! It was great! We had a blast! And when people were cold they just watched from the cabin. Thank you for allowing us to use you your wonderful home. The Beck family.

I had a great time. It is awesome how we have our own sledding hill right outside of the cabin. This is a very wonderful place. We had 16 including babies. We hope that we can come again.
